Description

Refer to “Specifications” in the “Operating Instructions” accompanying the computer for information on the connectors and ports on the rear panel of the port replicator.

Names of Parts

The port replicator allows your peripheral devices to function exactly as if they were connected directly to the computer. (Refer to “Names and Functions of Parts” in the “Operating Instructions” accompanying the computer.)

NOTE

The LAN port does not support the following functions.

• [LAN] and [Boot up from LAN] in [Advanced] menu of the Setup Utility

• [LAN] in [Boot] menu of the Setup Utility or [LAN] in Boot First Menu

• Wake up from LAN function The LAN port has a slower transfer rate than that of the computer LAN because it uses the USB to Ethernet interface. The floppy disk drive or CD drive connected to the USB port cannot be used for startup. The speed at which startup, resume or LAN transfer is performed may be significantly reduced when a USB device has been connected. If this happens, connect the USB device to the computer.

Connecting/Disconnecting

Connecting

CAUTION

Do not connect or disconnect the port replicator while the computer is powered on or in the standby or hibernation mode.

Turn off the computer, and disconnect all cables from the computer.

Connect the plug of the AC adaptor that came with the computer to the DC-IN jack of the port replicator and plug the other end into an AC outlet.

CAUTION

Do not use other than the specified AC adaptor (Model No. CF-AA1623A) and AC cord. Refer to the “Operating Instructions” accompanying computer for information on proper handling of the AC adaptor and AC cord.

Detach the strap’s buckle.

Firmly close all covers at the rear side of the computer.

Turn the computer over, and open the cover for the expansion bus connector of the computer.

(DOCK POSITION)

Lever

CAUTION

Do not attempt to move the port replicator when it is connected to the computer. Hold down the bottom of the computer when opening

the display. If you open the display without holding down the bottom of the computer, the computer may

be disconnected from the port replicator. Do not turn the display while the computer is connected to the port replicator. Set the port replicator up on a flat surface. Setting up the port replicator on an uneven

surface can result in poor contact. Do not use the port replicator in a location where it will be subject to vibration, such as

while riding a bike, motorcycle, or car. The computer may disconnect from the port

replicator and malfunction as a result. If the computer malfunctions while the port replicator is connected, refer first to the

“Dealing with Problems (Advanced)” in the computer’s “Reference Manual”. If you

still are unable to solve the problem, turn off the computer, disconnect the port replicator

( page 11), connect the AC adapter to the computer, and check to see if the com-

puter operates normally. If the computer operates normally, the port replicator may be

malfunctioning. Contact Panasonic Technical Support.

HINWEIS

Der Anschluss für das lokale Netz unterstützt die folgenden Funktionen nicht:

• [LAN] und [Boot up from LAN] im Menü [Advanced] des Programms „Setup Utility“.

• [LAN] im Menü [Boot] des Programms „Setup Utility“ oder [LAN] im Menü „Boot First Menu“.

• Reaktivierung über die Funktion für das lokale Netz

Der Anschluss für das lokale Netz weist eine geringere Übertragungsrate auf als der lokale Netzanschluss des Computers, da hierbei eine USB-EthernetSchnittstelle verwendet wird. Das an den USB-Anschluss angeschlossene Disketten- oder CD-Laufwerk kann nicht für den Urladevorgang verwendet werden. Die Geschwindigkeit, mit der der Urladevorgang, der Fortsetzungsvorgang oder die Übertragung über das lokale Netz erfolgt, kann stark reduziert werden, wenn ein externes Gerät am USB-Anschluss angeschlossen ist. Schließen Sie das USBGerät in diesem Fall an den Computer an.

Erweiterungsbus-Anschluß

Hier auf der Unterseite des Computers erfolgt der Anschluß an den Erweiterungsbus. Wenn der Computer nicht angeschlossen ist, muß diese Buchse unbedingt mit der Schutzkappe versehen werden.

Hebel

Verschieben Sie den Hebel, um den Computer ein- oder auszudocken. Wenn der Portreplikator nicht an den Computer angeschlossen ist, müssen Sie darauf achten, daß der Hebel in der Stellung „UNDOCK“ (auf die Rückseite des Gerätes hin weisend) verbleibt.

Halter für Schutzkappe

Die Schutzkappe des ErweiterungsbusAnschlusses sollte hier platziert werden, wenn der Portreplikator am Computer angeschlossen ist. (Dadurch wird verhindert, daß sie verlorengeht.)
